Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec – The Ault & Wiborg Co., 1950 Lithograph (after the 1896 poster)
This Toulouse-Lautrec The Ault & Wiborg Co. lithograph is a 1950 reproduction of the artist’s 1896 poster created for the American printing ink manufacturer. One of the smallest formats among Lautrec’s posters, the composition depicts an elegantly dressed couple in a theater box, rendered with fluid line, muted color, and a distinctive use of negative space that reflects the artist’s mature graphic style.
Printed in four colors, the design is closely related to a 1895 painting of Missia in a theater box, which served as a study for the final composition. This example is a later lithographic reproduction and not a period impression, preserving the intimacy and refinement of one of Lautrec’s most subtle advertising works.

As a posthumous lithograph, this work offers collectors access to one of Lautrec’s more restrained and painterly poster designs, notable for its limited palette and nuanced depiction of Parisian social life.
